                Welcome to the website about the development of MapWindow v5.<br />
                On the following pages we will keep you informed with the progress of the&nbsp; development.<br />
                Our goal is to make MapWindow open source GIS the most user friendly GIS available.
            </p>
            <p>
                If you want to help you can. The source code of MapWindow v5 is in a GIT repository: <a href="https://mapwingis.codeplex.com/SourceControl/latest" target="_blank">https://mapwingis.codeplex.com/SourceControl/latest</a><br />
                This makes it much easier for
                you to contribute to the project. Just fork the repository, make your changes and send us
                a pull request. More about the forking workflow can be read in this great tutorial:

                MapWindow 5 is at an early stage of development right now. It's a
                direct successor of the previous version, but will be reworked
                according the latest architectural and coding practices. It means that
                we already have quite substantial body of code which will very much
                speed up the development. We also use the same <a target="_blank" href="https://mapwingis.codeplex.com/releases/view/541892">MapWinGIS</a>
                control as a core component, so all the basic GIS functionality is
                already there. The practices that will be used are: loose coupling of
                code, dependency injection, unit testing, MEF for plugins etc. <br />

            <div class="donations">
                <p>
                    To make new MapWindow 5 GIS possible we need to raise
                    $6,000. We already raised $4,500 (status end Februari 2015) so we've started with the developement.
                    <br />It would be great to get the remaining funding. If you haven't donated yet, please do
                    so. Every dollar helps.
                    <br />

                In January 2015 we've asked our users to fill in a short survey to help us prioritize the development tasks.<br />
                <a href="survey-results.html">The results of this survey can be found here</a> and the <a href="priority.html">compiled priority list can be found here</a>.<br />
            </p>
            <p>
                During development we will try to write reguarly (we'll try every week) our findings in a blog-style at Codeplex.<br />
                The following posts are already available:
